She could see, as she automatically got to her feet and faced Neil across the candles, only the odd, stricken look in Brett's eyes, and the unbelief in his ex- ion. must see his reluctance to join in the volley of congratulations, the wisecracks that came from Gina and and the Satis- faction expressed by Julie and Mrs. Marbury, But as she man- aged a troubled smile, only at Neil or at her. And when she glanced again at Brett he was on his feet,. smiling, his glass raised in a gay salute to her. Doubt ence, Eve discovered. The rest of the company took it for granted that she and Neil wanted to be nd alone, and although they gathered in the living room after dinner, it was plain that they expected the engeaee couple to take them- selves off. Brett enlisted Jim Droissard’s Bely and the two started up to the secret room.

She was eager to see the room upstairs, and the idea of sitting on the sand with Neil, even in so romantic a setting, did not have the same appeal. But she did appreciate the beau- ty of the night, when they finally found a fallen log and were seated on it, watching the restless move- ment of the sea against the shore. The moon laid a silver path to their very feet, and the salt smell of the ocean mingled with the pun- gent sweetness of the flowers. Neil, as if he sensed her mood, did not make love to her, but sat close, gazing with her at the water and talking now and then in a desultory fashion about nothing in particular, Eve, to her embar- rassment, suddenly found herself yawning. Oh—I'm sorry!” she apolo- |sized quickly. But Neil laughed and drew her to her feet, “Of course you're sleepy. We've had a rather hectic day.
